Time for sketches! # 97 and Mojo Monday # 88

Happy Thursday Everyone!!! It's Sketches! { by tamara} again. Here is the card I made using the Sketch #97 this week.


This beautiful "Doodle Daisy" is actually a digital stamp from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. It is only $1.00. It is so easy to use too! I just printed the image and then colored in using my Prismacolor pencils with OMS. A second time, I printed the flower on White c.s., colored and cut them out center of the flower and then layered for added dimension. The sentiment is from Paper Salon, "Sentiment " stamp set. To finish the card, I added some ribbon, gemstones, Dew Drops and piercings.















**********************************************************My second card, I made for the Mojo Monday Sketch # 88. Make sure you check out the Mojo Monday sketch challenge and see what the other ladies made. The cards are fabulous again this week.
I used the digital stamp "Daffodil #2" from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. I printed the image, colored in using my Prismacolor pencils and blended the colors with OMS, then cut out.
